Old town Porto and surrounds

Amr checked out the surroundings while we all emerged at different times. We went and had breakfast with good coffee and food despite it being amidst the pigeons. Jess and Amr went to a famous bookstore inspiring JK Rowling, she had worked in this town. Mum, Ted and I went via the amazing train station filled with local train timetables and activity. We wandered down age old stairs to the bottom of the river and historic route with scenic views. Down by the water we wandered the streets and ended up back at the funicular up to the top. We then walked across the famous bridge to the Parc. Amazing views and trams crossing directly in front as we crossed the bridge. After a relaxed stop at a cafe overlooking the view we went back, collected our gear and went to the beautiful Atlantic back near where Melissa and Miguel (friends of Mum and Amr’s) live. We got the rock star table and enjoyed a snack and relax before Amr, Rosie and I headed to the house while Jess and Ted enjoyed the Atlantic ocean beach and a swim. Melissa and Miguel put on a fine feast assisted by their gorgeous kids. Home at the apartment and ready for a new adventure tomorrow!Baca selengkapnya
